Product details
Overview
SF2002PT from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 20A, 100V super fast recovery dual rectifier in TO-247AD package with positive center-tap configuration, 35ns reverse recovery time, 1.100V forward voltage at 20A/25°C, and 2.5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance - used in DC-DC converters and snubber circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SF2002PT datasheet, SF2002PT pinout, SF2002PT application, or SF2002PT equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100 V, IF = 20 A, trr = 35 ns, RθJC = 2.5 °C/W, and dual die center-tap topology for balanced high-frequency rectification.
Technical Context
The SF2002PT integrates two identical silicon rectifier dies in a single TO-247AD package with shared cathode and isolated anodes, forming a positive center-tap configuration ideal for full-wave rectification without external center-tapped transformers. Its superfast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) minimizes switching losses in high-frequency SMPS topologies.
Designed for operation up to 150°C junction temperature, it delivers low forward voltage (1.100 V @ 20 A, 25°C) and low thermal resistance (2.5 °C/W), enabling compact heatsink designs in space-constrained industrial and lighting power supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe blocking capability in 100 V-rated DC-DC stages. |
| IF | 20 A - Continuous average forward current per diode; supports high-power output rails without derating below 100°C case temp. |
| trr | 35 ns - Reverse recovery time; enables efficient operation up to ~500 kHz switching frequency with minimal tail current loss. |
| VF @ 20A, 25°C | 1.100 V - Forward voltage drop per diode; determines conduction loss of 22 W total at 20 A (2 × 1.1 V). |
| RθJC | 2.5 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; allows direct mounting to heatsink with predictable thermal rise under full load. |
| IFSM | 180 A - Non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); withstands inrush and fault transients in industrial power systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-247AD (TO-3P), 3-terminal molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 rated compound, and polarity marked on device body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode 1 (A1) | Input terminal for first rectifier die | Connected to AC input leg 1; must be routed with low-inductance layout for fast recovery integrity. |
| Anode 2 (A2) | Input terminal for second rectifier die | Connected to AC input leg 2; symmetrical routing required to balance conduction and thermal stress. |
| Cathode (K) | Common output node (center-tap) | Provides full-wave DC output reference; carries full 20 A sum current; requires heavy copper pour and thermal via array. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual die, positive center-tap configuration | Enables transformerless full-wave rectification with single-output DC bus and reduced EMI vs. bridge solutions. |
| Superfast recovery (trr ≤ 35 ns) | Reduces reverse recovery charge (Qrr) to <15 nC, minimizing switching loss and diode-induced voltage spikes. |
| Glass passivated junction | Ensures long-term reliability under humidity and thermal cycling; meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. |
| Low RθJC (2.5 °C/W) | Permits direct bolt-down heatsinking without thermal interface pads in many 20 A applications, simplifying mechanical design. |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter | Snubber Circuit |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated 48 V–12 V buck-derived DC-DC modules operating at 200–500 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual rectifier providing synchronous full-wave output with shared cathode return path.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast turn-off clamp element absorbing leakage inductance energy during MOSFET turn-off. Use Value: Low Qrr and 100 V VRRM prevent voltage overshoot beyond 120 V while maintaining <10 µA leakage at 125°C. |
| Lighting Power Supply | Freewheeling Diode |

Use Value: 180 A IFSM withstands repeated 50 A inductive surges; glass passivation ensures >10-year field life in humid environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar superfast dual rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH2002CT | VRRM = 200 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.15 V @ 20 A, TO-247 package, single cathode | Higher blocking voltage; same recovery speed but slightly higher conduction loss | Preferred where system requires margin above 100 V reverse stress or legacy ST design reuse |
| IXYS MUR2020CT | VRRM = 200 V, trr = 35 ns, VF = 1.10 V @ 20 A, TO-247 package, center-tap | Same VF and trr, but 200 V rating and different thermal profile (RθJC = 3.0 °C/W) | Drop-in compatible in layout; requires minor thermal validation due to +0.5 °C/W RθJC |
Compared with SF2002PT, STTH2002CT offers higher VRRM at minor VF cost, while IXYS MUR2020CT matches VF and trr but trades 100 V rating for 200 V headroom and slightly reduced thermal performance - both require review of layout thermal vias and snubber damping when substituting.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SF2002PT?
The SF2002PT has a maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet Version I2103. This rating applies across the full operating range and enables reliable use in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments when thermal design respects the 2.5°C/W RθJC limit. Derating curves confirm 20 A operation is sustained up to 100°C case temperature.
Does SF2002PT have AEC-Q101 qualification?
The base SF2002PT variant is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the AEC-Q101 version is designated SF2002PTH per Taiwan Semiconductor's ordering information. The "H" suffix indicates full AEC-Q101 stress testing compliance, including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD. For automotive-grade deployment, SF2002PTH must be specified - SF2002PT lacks this qualification and is intended for industrial/commercial use only.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of SF2002PT and under what test conditions?
The SF2002PT reverse recovery time is 35 ns, measured under the condition: IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A, per the Electrical Specifications table in the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This value is typical and guaranteed maximum, confirmed across production lots. It reflects performance at 25°C junction temperature and is critical for minimizing switching loss in high-frequency converters.
How does the center-tap configuration of SF2002PT affect PCB layout?
The SF2002PT's positive center-tap configuration requires symmetric routing of Anode 1 and Anode 2 traces to maintain balanced current sharing and thermal distribution between dies. The common Cathode (K) pad must be large, thermally connected to a heatsink plane via ≥6 thermal vias, and kept short to minimize inductance that could degrade trr performance. Unequal trace lengths or asymmetric copper pours may cause current imbalance and localized overheating.
What is the forward voltage (VF) of SF2002PT at rated current and temperature?
The SF2002PT forward voltage is 1.100 V per diode at IF = 20 A and TJ = 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. At elevated junction temperatures (e.g., 125°C), VF decreases to approximately 0.95 V due to negative temperature coefficient of silicon PN junctions. This behavior reduces conduction loss under thermal stress but must be validated against system voltage regulation margins.
